I work for the Official Moodle Partner WebAnywhere. They have recently brought out a Moodle SIMS Integration tool. If you’re interested give me a call on 0800 862 0131, we’d love to have a chat with someone like yourself about it.

Thanks

A pint or 2 would be a very good idea, so let me know when you heading down this way. Thanks to your post I was able to get started on this little project and will keep you updated on how they get on. Yesterday, the second group who were introduced to ‘teacher power’ in moodle decided that embedding their favourite ‘physics’ games was a good use of their time. I guess they were being ‘creative’.

Also when you do get down to this part of the world let me know and I can have a word to see if there is any coverwork going etc.

Cheers

Ivan

I read this and I went “whooa” – well done! I also had a chuckle reading that ‘they didn’t leap at the chance to teach teachers straight away’. In my class the words uttered were ‘shaaame’. The funny thing is that they will do it. Kids, as you say, like a bit of control and responsibiity, they are actually far more imaginative than most of the teachers I work with (sad but true) and that’s why I’m aiming for them and with them.

A lot of it depends on the culture of the school, the particular group etc. – just like any other part of schooling really.

I am glad to have contributed to your project in some small way. Best of luck growing your Moodle. I’d love to hear about it next year in a pub somewhere (currently looking for some teaching/ICT/Moodle work for next year in UK, plan is to spend 2010 in your part of the world). Up for a pint?
